In Seoul, Bonzi country, the blue and black sky gradually reveals the white belly of fish, and the dawn gradually deepens, and gradually dyes the sky red.
In the dark study filled with smoke, the light of the desk lamp lengthened Li jaxian's figure in the boss's chair, hung up the phone, and Li jaxian sighed helplessly.
Take up the glasses on the desk and put them on. There are angry eyes in bloodshot eyes. Li, who looks very tired in face and spirit, thinks of talking with Andy Smith before. His face is also relaxed.
For the so-called second uncle, Li didn't respect him, but only hated him. Since his mother won in the power struggle for the first sugar making with share exchange and he successfully took the post of president of CJ group, he has been holding down CJ group by the second uncle who controls the four-star group.
Even if he is prosecuted for tax evasion and breach of trust this time, he will bear "full responsibility", including legal responsibility and moral responsibility. He resigned and lost the four-star chairman's throne. His ruthless third uncle, Li Jianxi, and his equally vicious son will not forget to splash dirty water against him to stop CJ group's very important merger and acquisition.
In fact, for Li Jianxi, everyone knows that even if the charges are found, they will not pose a threat to him. Even if the charges are found, they will not really go to prison unless the Korean government is really crazy.
But Li was investigated first. That's another thing. It's easy to be manipulated by the four-star Li family, even if he is the president of CJ group.
His investigation and the possible collapse of the merger and acquisition of Korean express company led to a sharp drop in CJ's share price, and all kinds of signs indicate that someone is shorting CJ's share price.
Lee has made a counterattack, but in the shadow of the global financial crisis, South Korea's stock market has been deeply affected, and the general trend is falling. Even if he has made a large number of buybacks, he can not alleviate the continuous decline.
And continue to use a large amount of cash, will lead to the lack of funds for the acquisition of Korean express company, and now the bastard Li zajung also released a message that he will join the bid for Korean express, which undoubtedly makes CJ's acquisition more difficult.
Li jaju needs good news to boost CJ group's share price, and funds to complete the acquisition of Korea Tongyun. He has no trust in his country's ability to become a chaebol of CJ group, because most chaebols are inextricably related to four stars. Maybe they are not friends, but enemies.
Lee thought of Andy Smith, who has a strong background and a strong capital. Although Andy's reputation is indeed a little criticized and guarded, Lee was not afraid of it at all.
Because he has absolute control over CJ group, with more than 58% of the shares, he hardly needs to worry about losing the control of the group. The American investment community has said that Andy Smith is a greedy hungry wolf that will never be fed, but for Li jaju, he has no such concerns.
Andy Smith became an independent director of CJ group. For him, Li zeju, there are only advantages, but no disadvantages. He needs a strong and reliable ally, and only the allies with interest demands to help him fight against the hostility and suppression of the four-star group.
Of course, he needs to pay a certain price, such as cheap preferred stock and equity, board seats...
However, all of these are worth Li's consideration. If you think of the second uncle's son, his cousin Li jaecan, who died in a tragic suicide, he will have to be ready to fight...
In the South Bay area of San Francisco, the lush scenery of the invincible mountains and sea is covered with a layer of gold by the setting sun.
Andy called the New York think tank and asked them to sort out the CJ group's information, wash it in the bathroom, put on T-shirts and shorts, go into the study, turn on the computer, and wait for the video connection for a while.
In the previous phone call, Li was honest about the difficulties he was facing and the advantages he wanted to gain by introducing Andy Smith, an independent director.
After Andy heard Li's words, the only regret is that CJ group has been completely separated from the four-star group system and become an independent Li company. Otherwise, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to participate in the four-star group system.
As for whether he will offend the four-star Li family, Andy has never cared about this issue. To be honest, if he wants to finish the last harvest of the largest scale in the financial crisis, he and four-star have become rivals.
He has no interest in exploring the grievances of the four-star group. The olive branch that Li put in the first place was accepted by him and sold to him 8% shares and board seats at a low price.
Ding -
Andy shakes his mouse, clicks to accept the video connection request, the black screen video window flashes, and the image of alvert column appears.
"How is it?"
"The general information has been sorted out. CJ group is the largest food company in South Korea. At present, CJ group mainly produces sugar first, CJ home shopping, CJ investment securities, CJ Entertainment & amp; amp; media... 13 wholly owned subsidiaries and listed subsidiaries.Four business groups have been formed, including food and catering business group, biology and pharmaceutical business group, new circulation business group, entertainment and media business group, and infrastructure business group under construction.
In 1997, the company officially separated from the four star group, and began to expand its global business in 2006, accelerating its expansion to become a global enterprise.
Last year, the group's total sales reached US $5.4 billion, making a profit of 1. With total assets of USD 4.96 billion, the group has a market value of USD 3 billion.
At present, there are three major shareholders of CJ group. Li, President of CJ group, accounts for 58% of the shares in the first place, 15% of the other two, and 20% of the shares in the secondary market......
The world's leading enterprises rank 1861, the group is in the period of global expansion, think tank solidarity theory, CJ group belongs to high-quality industrial assets, in favor of buying. "
Hearing al's report, Andy's eyes are brighter and his mouth is curling up. "Ha ha, it seems that Jen is really in a hurry this time. Since he is so generous, I can only repay him. Al, you can form a team, go to Bangzi country first, contact CJ group at the beginning, and then I will. I hope that by then, I just need to sign and pay for it 。”
"Good boss. At present, the stock price of listed companies under CJ continues to fall, which has been seriously underestimated. There are signs that there are suspicions of being short and suppressed, and there is room for operation. You can copy the bottom and cooperate with the boss to choose to do long. " Al's advice came at the right time.
"It's a good idea. Let's move to Seoul. I don't want to be watched by Bonzi's Securities Regulatory Commission." Andy touched his chin and nodded, not forgetting to tell.
"Okay, I'll let them know right now..."
View video: Andy's mouth is smiling, his eyes are squinting, his fingers are tapping the desktop quickly, and he doesn't know what he's thinking.
"Ding Dong --"
Andy reaches out his hand and shakes his mouse. He clicks on the pop-up email icon and roughly browses the materials sent by Li Jae first. He laughs twice and picks up his mobile phone and dials it out.
"Jon, does the weekly branch in Seoul track and collect the news of Li Jianxi, a four-star group?" Andy asked as he quickly looked at some of the black materials revealed by the head of the legal team of the four-star group this time, as well as some of the black materials that Li had mastered in advance.
“。。。 Well, there are several good ones. In a moment, I'll send you some materials. You personally write and make a cover headline of Newsweek according to the materials, highlighting Mr. Li zajong's assistance in asset transfer and the strategic planning office of four star group, which lacks transparency and has high position and weight. "
After Andy communicated his meaning to Jon Mitcham, he emailed the information he had checked.
Thinking of Li's helpless wry smile before, Andy also has an intuitive understanding of the status and influence of the four stars in Bangzi country. Even though this scandal caused public outcry in Bangzi country, but in Bangzi country, the four stars have controlled the media industry for a long time, and the mainstream media in Bangzi country are reporting in order to guide public opinion.
However, since Li Jae first sent Andy a big gift bag, Andy naturally didn't say nothing. Since Bonzi's son dare not report, let American Dad report it.
Andy once again offered Newsweek, a killer with a global circulation of more than five million copies, as a gift to Li Qixian, a "good friend"!
